Lancer GT-A or 2.0S Honda Civic

[jaredpianist]

nice thread. saktong sakto sa mind ko. nagiisip din ako kung bibili ako civic 2.0 o GTA. Pero GTA talaga maganda kaso my dad is a Honda fan.

sa speed/acceleration, GT-A vs SiR? panalo padin talaga SiR?
however, sa looks palang, panalo na GTA.

Civic SiR 0-100kph is around 8 seconds.
Lancer EX GLX 0-100kph is around 9 seconds.

But you don't get the same amount of luxury, safety and looks as the Lancer EX.

You can buy a Civic SiR but all you are getting is a 12 year old car with old car problems.

If you want raw speed from an old car, then a Sentra B13/B14 with a SR20 engine is your choice of road weapon. It will eat Civic SiRs for breakfast even with the SR20 bone stock.

*gh... what is the average 0-100 of a b13 equipped with an sr20? how about the turbo version of that sr20det ba yun?

Sentra b13/b14 Sr20de = 7 seconds (0-100kph)

how about b20b with b16 head vs the sr20 stock?

Hahahaha. Bakit niyo ba kinakatakutan ang SiR ? Porket they're speed maniacs ? Sus. Ano ba yun.

Mahal gas ngayon oy ! Kukuha ka pa ng SiR tapos ilalaban mo pa sa karera. That's just so stupid. Eh ano naman kung mag paunahan kayo sa 0-100 ng SiR ? Atleast sa GTA you get the comfort that you want, a good looking car ( yes mas maganda sa SiR na palagi ko nalang nakikita, iba pa nga poser na SiR ) and BRAND NEW pa.

Kung bibili kayo ng SiR > GTA para makapantay lang sa kapwa niyo SiR, i'd say that's a stupid idea, a VERY stupid idea.

Ipagpapalit mo ang brand new sa 12 y.o. car ? sheesh.

Okay sana if you have a project car that's just awaiting for a transplant, yun pwede pa. Go. Kasi dito mga 200-300k lang naman magagastos mo and mabilis na yun. Pero SiR > Brand new na GTA pa ??? Sus.

That's your assignment.

What I posted are 0-100kph performance of stock engines in stock cars.

I did not post combination of cars & engines not found in stock/factory.

Civic with B20B/B16-head hybrid, just like Sentra w/ SR20DET, are not found from the factory so 0-100kph performance figures will vary greatly, hence I did not post figures for them.

^^ some people still go for speed than economy (hindi ako isa dun). baka ginagawang base line lang yung SiR for speed and acceleration.

EDIT: *GH... natanong ko lang baka you have an idea. parang unfair lang b16 vs sr20 kaya ko natanong b20b.

Unfortunately the Civic SiR is still a good performance benchmark for locally released cars. But it does not take into consideration the improvements in comfort, safety and handling in the last decade (which tends to add weight to the car).

performance benchmark, oo naman. B16 as a stock engine ? what more can you ask for. pero diba, to consider it over a brand new car because it's just faster by a second is simply pointless.

but then again, if you have an EK/EG/B13/B14 parked in your garage awaiting for a transplant then by all means do so. iba pa rin ang may toy car, but if you're comparing it ( kung wala ka pang project car & bibili ka palang ... ) to a brand new vehicle thats performance is also top-notch, then ... brand new na.

also, pwede rin yung " project car " if you don't have the budget to buy a brand new car. iba pa rin ang difference ng 300k ( spent on mods. mods. mods ) vs. 1.1M ( spent to buy a STOCK car ... )

*archie1-9, well hindi rin naman ganun ka-economic ang GT-A. in fact, nasa 7km/L lang ito, last time i checked the EX thread - GH, cmiiw nalang. siguro more of speed vs. comfort mas " swak " kung ganun. hehehe.
